Human interaction layers should now be considered middleware. Autonomy is the highest layer now. T could also be Tensor-based mathematics.

This is the new “full stack” If you don’t touch hardware, power systems, or AI, you’re like quarter-stack now. Sorry, I don’t make the rules.

I’m not sure whether to include crypto/blockchain. Not only are B and C hard to fit into the acronym, they’re… not really used outside their own bubble? Maybe a REALIST-B as a parallel universe, though it’s a stretch.

Probably wise. I bet the core insight that "Attention Is All You Need" is here to stay though. Core value of transformers is that they make it unnecessary for engineers decide how to wire up the different parts of the network. Just let attention do it.
